Very clearly the photo was taken from Facebook and cropped to make a Wayspot nomination.

@NianticGiffard Thanks for getting this one reviewed as per your reply to my other post today.
Two extra things:
I didn't notice when I first made this post, or maybe it wasn't added at that stage, but there is a second Wayspot photo on the image which uses the same copyright third-party photo, simply uncropped. The cropped photo has been removed but now the uncropped version of the same image still remains live.
Secondly, another Wayspot has come up for review at the exact same location, presumably be the same submitter. It also uses a third party photo, and they included the source of the third-party photo in the supporting photo.
The title is "WOW Girl Mural" -- -37.689514,144.601946
It's a cool mural but also uses a third-party photo. :-/
@NianticVK Would you please be able to have a look at this, as my tag to @NianticGiffard did not receive action.

^ This Wayspot still has a photo which has been taken from Facebook. Only one of the two photos was removed after the original report.

^ I reported this in this topic ~3 weeks ago when I saw it as a Wayfarer review. However, due to lack of action, the Wayspot was approved with a photo stolen from Instagram. This was incorrectly accepted by reviewers, as the supporting photo even showed that it was an Instagram screenshot. Now there is a second approved nomination with a copyright third-party photo.
Details showing that the original internet sources for these images is provided above.
Sorry about the delay there. I have escalated your report internally and will share the decision soon.
@NianticGiffard It has been a fortnight since you escalated this report. From what I can tell, both the Wayspots still carry the third-party photographs.
Sorry about the delay, @Tntnnbltn-ING. The photo removal process might take some time however we have taken action on 2 Wayfinders as per our policies.
It has been an additional two months and the photos are still present, even on the Wayfarer app. The removal never happened.
Can I get this looked at again? @NianticVK @NianticOtoStar @NianticLC ??
Hi @Tntnnbltn-ING! Please contact us through the Wayfarer help chat widget. We'll look into this. Thank you!
So it would appear the photo i specifically captured to add to the WOW Girl Mural, after seeing this thread. has been removed. Really frustrating that a photo I took has been removed.
